Create account/Sounds like "gwah" (as in "Guam") + "ROO" (as in "rude") + "rah" (as in "rapper")/
A bodyguard or personal security escort. In Mexico, "guarura" refers to the big, intimidating guys who protect politicians, businessmen, or cartel figures, always wearing dark sunglasses and keeping everyone at a distance. More street-level and informal than the clinical "guardaespaldas."
“El gobernador llegó con tres guaruras que no dejaban pasar a nadie. (The governor showed up with three bodyguards who would not let anyone through.)”
“¿Viste al guarura de ese señor? Parecía armario de dos puertas. (Did you see that man's bodyguard? He was built like a wall.)”

Planchar la oreja
To sleep, especially a long nap or a deep sleep. Literally "to iron your ear," picturing someone pressing their ear into a pillow. Used casually across Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Venezuela, Chile, and Peru for any serious napping session.
